Strengths: Picture is good, it works well as a monitor or TV, catches off-air HD pretty well (at least in my location)
Weaknesses: Sound -- terrible! External speakers (almost) necessary. Samsung's strange menu/info. conventions, weak PIP.
Summary: I got this TV as a gift for my aging mother, as one of her deoctors recommended her having a Tv in her bedroom to help her with some sleep problems... The size was perfrect, and the deal I got when I purchased it with a second Samsung TV (a 46" slightly larger model for my TV room) sealed the deal.
It works well for what she needs it for -- it's hooked up to basic cable and get local HD channels via a Terk HD tuner. Picture is generally good, although the sounds leaves a lot to be desired. With a set of speakers, it would probably make for a good TV/small-computer-monitor combo for a bedroom or a dorm room, although, as with the larger Samsung HDTV, anyone wanting to get good PIP funbctionality out of this will be disappointed by the lack of options.
At a good sale price, this is a decent TV. Had I not almost backed into it based on the other one I was buying for myself, further research might have led me to make a different choice for this TV, bot overall it does service its purpose well.
